Yes, mingw (cross-built with mxe). winsock.h and winsock2.h are present in
/include.
As to system macros, that's beyond me :-(
AFAIK (I'm on Linux now) on mingw gcc = 4.9.3

So, what are the suggestions a la "database'?

BTW, cross-building both the new optim and struct packages fails with:

/bin/sh: -std-=gnu++11: command not found

(but they install fine from -forge)
